MOBILE, Ala. (WKRG) — Our Pet of the Week is a 6 1/2-year-old Chiweenie, a Chihuahua-Dachshund mix. His name is Shorty. His owner could no longer care for him or his siblings. He is used to being in a home with three other dogs and will do fine with other dogs his size. He is extremely calm and just wants to be held. He would be perfect for someone who has a lot of time to snuggle him.

If you would like to adopt Shorty, please complete his pet adoption application. The adoption fee includes his neuter, vaccinations, and microchipping.

Thanks to Premier Turf Gulf Coast for sponsoring our Pet of the Week segment. Premier Turf Gulf Coast is a locally owned company that installs American-made synthetic turf. Their turf is pet-friendly and pet-preferred.
